Chapter 65: Meeting Old Mrs. Mo
“It’s alright, I know you’re busy. Are you Anran?”
Old Mrs. Mo looked at her new granddaughter-in-law with interest.
She had long heard about the marriage arrangement between the Mo Family and the Lan Family from Mo Changwen and thought that the Lan Family would reject it. She didn’t expect that such a beautiful girl would accept the agreement.
“Hello, my name is Lan Anran,” Lan Anran introduced herself politely.
Her voice was sweet and she maintained a sweet appearance. Old Mrs. Mo was overjoyed at the sight and continued to say, “Come, come, sit, come to my side. Let me have a good look at my granddaughter-in-law.”!!
Lan Anran stood up, walked to Old Mrs. Mo’s side, and sat down. She took Lan Anran’s hand and examined it carefully.
“Good, good, I’m satisfied.”
Lan Anran was pretty and seemed to be smart enough to match up to her grandson.
“Old Mrs. Lan, what a great granddaughter-in-law! I just don’t know when…”
Xu Pei rolled her eyes and stopped midway.
She was Mo Changwen’s wife and had long heard that Mo Jinrong would jinx his wife. With five wives dead, this one wouldn’t take long.
“You’re my aunt, right? Don’t worry, I naturally know about Jinrong, but I’m not afraid. I’m afraid that you still don’t know, my life has been filled with evil prophecies ever since I was born, so Jinrong and I are a match made in heaven. You don’t have to worry about that.”
Lan Anran smiled faintly.
“You…”
Xu Pei was at a loss for words and could only stare.
“What a perfect match! I love it!” Old Mrs. Mo said in a loud voice. She had always been upset that Mo Jinrong was growing old and still didn’t have any children. Now she could finally expect to have great-grandsons.
“Grandma, this is a gift for you.”
Lan Anran took out a small box from her bag and handed it to Old Mrs. Mo.
Mo Jinrong looked at Lan Anran cautiously. When did she bring this gift, why didn’t he know?
“Present?”
Old Mrs. Mo was overjoyed when she opened it.
In the box were extremely expensive earrings made of old and deformed jade. This was a rare item.
“What a good granddaughter-in-law! Where did you get such a good thing?”
She looked at it with love.
“It’s alright, as long as Grandma likes it.”
These earrings were bought by Lan Anran at an auction a few years ago and she thought they would be useful in the future. She remembered that in her past life, Old Mrs. Mo loved to collect jade and jewels. Unfortunately, those things were ruined by her, so this could be counted as compensation.
“I love it, I love it.”
Old Mrs. Mo loved it so much that Xu Pei was jealous.
“My dear niece-in-law, you’ve spent a fortune to please Old Mrs. Mo. I wonder when you’re going to give birth to a great-grandson for her.”
Xu Pei hadn’t forgotten her husband’s mission. Today, she was going to test Mo Jinrong’s condition.
Lan Anran blushed and lowered her head, looking at Mo Jinrong.
He hadn’t recovered from his illness and couldn’t touch women, so how could he have great-grandchildren?
Mo Jinrong felt uncomfortable from the stare.
“There’s no rush.”
“How could I not be anxious? Anran, Jinrong’s parents are long gone, and I was the one who raised him. I’m very anxious as I see this child grow older and older,” Old Mrs. Mo said sincerely.
She held Lan Anran’s hand and suddenly felt something cold. She lowered her head and saw that it was a jade bracelet passed down from her ancestors.
It seemed like this rascal had made up his mind. Great, she didn’t have to worry anymore.
Old Mrs. Mo accepted the jade and took out a black card.
“Come, child, this is my greeting gift to you.”
Lan Anran looked at the black card and her pupils constricted. This was a world-renowned black card with an unlimited credit limit. It was a valuable gift and it felt heavy to her.
“Grandma, this gift is too valuable.”
She couldn’t blink her eyes.
“Anran, you are a granddaughter-in-law of the Mo Family, you are worth any amount.”
Old Mrs. Mo smiled.
Xu Pei was extremely jealous. She never had a black card and this brat got something so good. How unfair!
“Jinrong, I know that your past has affected you deeply, but don’t fake your marriage just to placate your grandma, we can tell.”
Xu Pei still remembered the five women from before. Five of his wives died and he hadn’t touched a woman for three years. Now, he suddenly had a wife? The relationship between the two of them didn’t seem close, it seemed fake.
Old Mrs. Mo suddenly became solemn.
“Fake?”
Mo Jinrong stood up expressionlessly and walked towards Lan Anran. He gritted his teeth and hugged her, picking up her hand to reveal her bracelet.
“Do you still think it’s fake?”
Xu Pei’s eyes narrowed and she saw the bracelet that was passed down from her ancestors. She had only heard of it and had never seen it before. She didn’t expect it to be on this girl!
Lan Anran saw through Xu Pei’s thoughts, she took Mo Jinrong’s hand and smiled.
“Aunt, this is our token of love. We are truly in love, it isn’t a fake marriage.”
“I’m just saying, it’s good that it isn’t true. You should know that Jinrong has a reputation, so I’m just a little cautious…”
Xu Pei smiled embarrassedly.
